 Audio Systems-on-a-Chip (SoC) Shrink Consumer Electronics Size and Cost
By putting a DSP, microcontroller and high-performance audio converters on a single chip, TI can help lower BOM costs for digital TV audio systems and iPod/MP3 docking stations. Audio SoCs allow manufacturers to bring high-performance consumer electronics to market faster with an efficient drag-and-drop graphical development environment. Order samples today.
 New Code Composer Studio™ Integrated Development Environment (IDE) Raises Multiprocessor Support
Code Composer Studio software version 3.3 provides greater value for DaVinci SoC multiprocessing systems by combining all TI DSP platforms into one easy-to-use IDE. New and enhanced features include increased debugging visibility, simplified DSP platform migration and easy-to-use tool maintenance and updates. Learn all about it.
NEW! TMS320C642x™ DSPs
TI's TMS320C6424 and TMS320C6421 DSPs leverage an effective combination of integrated peripherals, on-chip memory and high performance to reduce overall system costs and improve performance (including peak processor performance of 4,800 MMACs at 600 MHz) in telecom and networked DSP applications. Learn about the powerful features of these DSPs today.

De-Interlacing and YUV 4:2:2 to 4:2:0 Conversion App Note
This application note describes implementation methods for a simple de-interlacer using the re-sizer hardware on DaVinci TMS320DM644x digital media processors. Because the resizer was not designed specifically for de-interlacing purposes, the de-interlacer uses a simple, non-ideal algorithm. Download this application note and project code today.
